Which phrase in this excerpt from a 1964 interview with Malcolm X indicates that he is explicitly stating an opinion? "I think a
ll of us should be critics of each other. When you can't stand criticism you can never grow. I don't think that it serves any purpose for the leaders of our people to waste their time fighting each other needlessly."
I believe that the phrase that indicates that Malcolm X is stating an opinion is given in two sentences, when he uses "I think..." and "I don´t think...".
The fact that he select the word think shows that he is validating the argument on his own opinion and not using other authors or references to make a point.
I hope that the answer and explanation are correct.
He read his textbooks carefully and made concept maps to help him remember the details. The dates were giving him trouble, though, so he tried to memorize them by reading them aloud and then saying them without looking in the book. He also made a time line and flashcards to help him remember important facts.
